I just learned that one of the exhibitors at the Pennsylvania School Boards Association/Pennsylvania Association of School Administrator’s annual conference will offer stamped envelopes to encourage attendees to write a letter or send an email to the President on October 17, calling for new policies in education. Please call for an end to high-stakes testing, to privatization, to punishing teachers, principals and schools based on test scores. Please call for positive measures to support our students, teachers, principals, and schools.
A site to discuss better education for all

The pebble thrown in the lake is beginning to ripple the water! Thanks for tossing that first stone, Diane!
Doesn’t PA have ALEC charter legislation on the table??? All parents and teachers really need to get behind blocking this legislation.
Yes, Pennsylvania has a proposal to let the governor create a charter commission that can over-ride local school boards, and the governor wants vouchers.
A mini-Jindal.
Thank you for starting this wave.
